Cool Places in San Diego: Como Ceviche

Disclosure: Como Ceviche invited us to taste their food. As always, all opinions, ideas, and stories are 100% my own.

We got invited recently to try out this restaurant that only sells Ceviche: Como Ceviche in downtown San Diego. It’s the first time I ever know that something like this even exists!

I decided to give it a try and took all the family with me. Just by the branding, Como Ceviche wins my designer heart 🙂

The place is spot on everything! I love the decor, they even have wall-covered colorful texts (so pretty!). It is located in downtown San Diego very close to Petco Park and the Central Library. That area is getting a lot of cool places, I feel I need to visit all of them and take photos.

But let’s talk about the food. You think that ceviche is done only one way, but no. There are many ways to make ceviche depending on what area it is from. I remember the first time I tried ceviche while living in Mexico I thought: That’s weird, I don’t remember ceviche tasting like this before. Well, that’s because in Mexico they prepare it slightly differently, or, for some people, a lot different!

At Como Ceviche they have Ceviche seven different ways: Caribbean, Mexican Baja Style, Cuban, Peruvian Aji Amarillo Style, Mexican Aguachile Style, Peruvian Rocoto Style, and even Vegan. See? There are even 2 different styles within a country!

My favorite style was Caribbean because it has mango and it’s served with plantain chips! Derek tried the Mexican Baja style and he liked it.

Maya doesn’t like fish at all!! So we got a plate with rice and chips for her, not so nutritious but at least she ate something!

I recommend you plan a downtown San Diego outing and explore that area and then have some yummy lunch at Como Ceviche!
